Rails

Hi,

I want to create a Rails application that summarises resource leave &
project phases. I basically want time horizontally (choose day-by-day,
week-by-week, etc resolution), and projects/resources horizontally. I
want
all phase of a project to be on the same horizontal row (i.e. not a
Gantt
chart which typically has a row per task).

Is there any existing HTML, Rails, Flash (with xml integration)
components
someone knows of that can do this nicely? i.e. similar to how
www.fusioncharts.com works for graphs.

Thanks

Haven’t used it, but I was looking for something like that and this
one is tempting:

Harold, this looks really promising. I’ll look into this.
Tim - I don’t want a Gantt chart as multiple tasks are typically on
different rows. Also prefer not to need internet access to Google
during
development (i.e. network connectivity)

You’re looking to create a Gantt Chart.

You may be able to accomplish this using the Google Charts API and a
horizontal stacked bar chart
